Mets look to play spoiler as Nolan McLean takes the mound against struggling Texas Rangers

Sometimes it is good to have a bit of luck on your side.

I tend to think most things just kind of even out overall in sports betting.

Yesterday was one of those days.

I bet over 6.5 runs in the Yankees-Rays game with very good pitchers on the mound.

It snuck over the total with seven runs scored.

I also bet on the Angels, and they were dominating the game ... until the bullpen took over and they gave up the lead.

Hopefully, I can dodge the bad luck and keep rolling with the good as we play the Mets vs.

Rangers.

They are 13 games under .500 for the season, but they've been surprisingly decent on the road this year.

Their only role remaining this season is to play spoiler.

You have to wonder what the team is going to do this offseason to try to adjust.

The lineup doesn't have a ton of options to upgrade.
